Make Outdoor-Friendly, Upholstered Window Ornaments

Add a pretty play on scale and proportion to your exterior windows during the holidays with oversized, upholstered ornaments. Create wintry shapes of your choice and give your windows some handmade flair.

Cut Flaps

To keep the fabric from looking bunched up along the edges, cut the fabric overhang into triangular flaps. Starting at one end and making your way around, cut flaps with scissors and secure them to the back of the ornament with a staple gun.

Add Wire

Once all triangular flaps are stapled in place, unfurl 36 inches of 12-gauge wire from its spool. Fold the wire in half, then attach it to the back of the ornament in two spots spaced 2 inches apart using a staple gun. This will create a hanger.
